Yes, yes, I know this, but drivers play a pretty substantial role in the performance of a card do they not? Anyways, I just wanted to get a post in... Looking for the 4870x2 personally.

yes look at Riva128 vs Riva128ZX the 4mb of memory arnt what improved it so much, the drivers for the ZX where alot better, and when TNT came out Riva128 looked great and could do OpenGL without cheating finally.

It does indeed say gtx280+ before big bang 2, i mean it is hard to read but you can make it out, so gtx 280+ is indeed before the big bang 2, so august rumour seems to be true for gtx 280+, I hope it is 55nm and I am sure it is, I bet they have been trying to shrink it few months before the actual launch of 65nm gtx 280, they should not have any problems as they have had the 65nm for a while now. perfect in time to Trade up my gtx 260 with bfg.

Open GL 3.0? Problem is only one or two game designers are ever going to considering using that standard anyway. DX10.1/DX11 is where all the spotlight is and AMD is the only side that can even run it, thanks to Nvidia's arrogance.

I doubt a lot of game coders will want to learn a new coding language because of someone's ignorance

We got an update today that this driver will enable any Geforce 8 or 9 card to act as a dedicated PPU.

Its not really a BIG feature like SLI was, but overall the features, optimizations the driver delivers is quite significant.

Ah, so it's what we have been talking about for some time in the GTX thread... Sweet! Makes me want to keep my 50 dollar card to see if it would be cool to use!?
